An Historical Journey in 100 years old Steam Train


The short roundtrip between Mariefred, Sweden and Taxinge is a fantastic one-day excursion. In one direction, you begin with the steam train, while in the other direction, you begin with the #steamboat S/S Mariefred. Taxinge Slott is a must-see in Taxinge. There's a nice selection of pastries and sandwiches, as well as artwork for sale, a lovely park next to the castle, and a little beach near the steamboat jetty.

The mind is like water. It's difficult to focus when things are tumultuous. Everything becomes obvious when it is calm.

Do you know, Which place has the largest 🍰 cake buffet in Northern 🇪🇺 Europe?

Taxinge Castle café. In the ”Cake Castle”, you can get a taste of northern Europe’s largest cake buffet. Everything is baked locally. No artificial ingredients or semi-manufactured products as far as the taste buds can savour. What do you think about exciting names like Treasure Chest, Gemmy or Almond Flower? There are about 60 different kinds, from Sacher torte to carrot cake. Big feast for both eyes and stomach.

It was a lot of fun to discover the church of Mariefred, which was completed in 1624. The church has a one-of-a-kind collection of oil paintings.
